The Cluster of Excellence 'CENTRE FOR TACTILE INTERNET WITH HUMAN-IN-THE-LOOP (CETI)' addresses developments and inventions for the use in or as smart devices in many areas, such as Industry 4.0, medicine and skill learning. The application of sensor units in smart textiles is widespread and used in various industry branches. Besides sensors, the development of textile actuating units is a relevant research topic. This paper discusses a theoretical actuator concept that leads to a ready-to-implement fiber-based electrostatic brake concept (passive actuator). Generally, the set-up is similar to a capacitor. Two different variants are presented according to the design of the dielectric and outer electrode layer. The dielectric material, its thickness, manufacturing process, future properties and implementation possibilities of the concepts are considered. Finally, a proof of concept with first results is presented.
卓越集群“人在回路中的触觉互联网中心（CETI）”致力于开发和发明，以应用于诸多领域或作为智能设备，如工业4.0、医学和技能学习。传感器单元在智能纺织品中的应用十分广泛，并在各个工业分支中得到使用。除了传感器，纺织驱动单元的开发也是一个相关的研究课题。本文讨论了一种理论驱动概念，该概念引出了一种可直接实施的基于纤维的静电制动器概念（被动式驱动器）。一般来说，其结构类似于一个电容器。根据电介质和外部电极层的设计，提出了两种不同的变体。文中考虑了电介质材料、其厚度、制造工艺、未来特性以及这些概念的实施可能性。最后，给出了具有初步结果的概念验证。
